They're doing all they can to keep rolling starts!

And there's a tap-n-spin at the hairpin, under yellow. Classic PWC this. |

Sadly it's a condition of sprint racing, anyone remember the outrage over every start to the FIA GT1 WC? They had rolling starts yet would destroy half the field on the first lap....

This being the most "racing" I've watched of PWC all year, sounds like its par for the course. Unfortunate. Beautiful cars and a fantastic track.

Thorne thought he was superman, or something....
The whole acceleration zone thing on the restarts looks crazy, like an accident waiting to happen. |

PWC really needs to have a stellar event at the next proper race track just so this can just be a street circuit issue....even the commentators are saying this is too much yellow.

Was that Robert Thorne in the McLaren 650S? Bone-headed move to say the least.
Let's see if PWC Long Beach can beat the 2015 Yellow-to-Green ratio currently held by IndyCar NOLA. Even Jeremy Shaw can't keep a lid on his frustrations. |

The restart zone, while it does look crazy, hasn't been the issue thus far. Knuckleheads in machines that appear to be over their skill level; that is the problem I see. |

I don't think standing starts are the problem.

Total green time isn't more than 6 minutes as it is. I wouldn't put any money on getting the other four at the moment ...
Edit - Starts are an issue generally, but not here. This is just silly stuff from drivers that should know better. |

Well Pros crashing Pros. So Touche, LS4life. But that is Beretta for you. He should NOT be out front of this one.
I know why they are timed, but making this a distance race would help eliminate these shenanigans. |
